Penalized Composite Quasi-Likelihood for Ultrahigh-Dimensional Variable Selection
TLDR
A data‐driven weighted linear combination of convex loss functions, together with weighted L1‐penalty is proposed and established a strong oracle property of the method proposed that has both the model selection consistency and estimation efficiency for the true non‐zero coefficients.Abstract:
In high-dimensional model selection problems, penalized least-square approaches have been extensively used. This paper addresses the question of both robustness and efficiency of penalized model selection methods, and proposes a data-driven weighted linear combination of convex loss functions, together with weighted L1-penalty. It is completely data-adaptive and does not require prior knowledge of the error distribution. The weighted L1-penalty is used both to ensure the convexity of the penalty term and to ameliorate the bias caused by the L1-penalty. In the setting with dimensionality much larger than the sample size, we establish a strong oracle property of the proposed method that possesses both the model selection consistency and estimation efficiency for the true non-zero coefficients. As specific examples, we introduce a robust method of composite L1-L2, and optimal composite quantile method and evaluate their performance in both simulated and real data examples.read more

Copula-based spatio-temporal modelling for count data
TL;DR: In this article, a Gaussian copula regression model (copSTM) is proposed for the analysis of multivariate spatio-temporal data on lattice, where temporal effects are modelled through the conditional marginal expectations of the response variables using an observation-driven time series model.
Estimating false discovery proportion under covariance dependence
TL;DR: This work derives the theoretical distribution for false discovery proportion (FDP) in large scale multiple testing when a common threshold is used and provides a consistent FDP and proposes a factor-adjusted procedure, which is shown in simulation studies to be more powerful than the fixed threshold procedure.

Automatic bias correction for testing in high‐dimensional linear models
Jing Zhou,Gerda Claeskens +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper , the robust approximate message passing algorithm is used to cope with non-Gaussian distributed regression errors, and the proposed framework enjoys an automatically built-in bias correction and is applicable with general convex nondifferentiable loss functions which also allows inference when the focus is a conditional quantile instead of the mean of the response.

Robust Estimation of a Location Parameter
TL;DR: In this article, a new approach toward a theory of robust estimation is presented, which treats in detail the asymptotic theory of estimating a location parameter for contaminated normal distributions, and exhibits estimators that are asyptotically most robust (in a sense to be specified) among all translation invariant estimators.
